關於Nostril的意思和用法的提問

A: Yes, this expression does mean that your nostrils are widened, where the two holes of your nose become bigger. However, in English, when used in literature or narratives, it usually means a sign of anger or nervousness. In most of the books I've read in my life so far, "flared nostrils" is usually sign of controlled anger.

A: I think the subtitles might be wrong, this is not a common phrase.

A: The nostrils are the holes of the nose, an odor is another word for smell, and cretonne is a kind of fabric.

It's a very complicated way of saying "She smelled dusty cloth."

A: I believe they are the same, but I have never heard "naris" used (even in my science classes).
"Nostril is the common name for the two anterior nares [1] (singular: naris)"

It is more of a medical/anatomic term, so some doctors I know do use it.

(WARNING: there is a picture of a nose on this website-- just so you aren't surprised haha)
